London Times...(and I don't mean the newspaper)

Photos taken on the fly while touring London on the top level of a bus are often not quite squared up. The tops of buildings are the images you snatch with the camera, and at that, the very top was often cut off. This is also true of the ones (at least mine) taken from a boat on the Thames.


When not focusing on images, there was a certain unreal feeling. It was hard to take in the reality that I was actually seeing London, really walking on the streets I had heard about ever since I could remember. Travel serves a dual purpose for me. It opens my eyes, in a way nothing else can, to the joy of iving in the now moment and it serves to remind me that there is beauty no matter where you go. We, who live under the same sky, are very much alike, no matter our location.
